My favorite part about an Italian Chopped Salad is how hearty and filling it is! I hate when I order a salad and then after eating it...I’m ready for my next meal. This salad is packed with flavor and is one of my favorites to have for lunch or when we order pizza I make this salad to eat with it! You could also up the protein in this salad by adding shredded chicken - that would be delish. And don’t skimp on the homemade dressing. You’re gonna love it! Full recipe below:
